Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
The two equations appear to be ...
- 12x +4y = 152
- 32x +12y = 420
These can be solved for y using Cramer's rule:
y = (152(32) -420(12))/(4(32) -12(12)) = -176/-16 = 11
The cost of the vegetarian lunch is 11.

<em>Comment on Cramer's Rule</em>
For equations ...
ax +by =c
dx +ey = f
The solutions are ...
x = (bf -ey)/(bd -ea)
y = (cd -fa)/(bd -ea) . . . . note the denominators are the same expression
Once you memorize the pattern of products, this can be the simplest way to solve a pair of equations--especially if you only need one of the variable values.
Answer:
168
Step-by-step explanation:
photos are enlarged by a certain factor, divide the new width by the old width and youll get the factor (12).
You can then multiply the original height by 12 to get the answer
12 X 14 =168

Answer:
(6,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
As is often the case with multiple-choice problems, you don't actually need to know the detailed working. You just need to know what the answer looks like.
When point X is dilated by a factor of 2 with point Z as the center of dilation, it will move to a location twice as far from Z. You can tell by looking at the graph that X' will be in the first quadrant, above and to the right of the location of X. The only sensible answer choice is ...
X' = (6, 2)
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
X is a distance of X-Z = (4, 0) -(2, -2) = (2, 2) from Z Doubling that will put the image point a distance of 2(2, 2) = (4, 4) from Z. When this is added to Z, we find ...
X' = Z + (4, 4) = (2+4, -2+4) = (6, 2)
